Prepare and Load the Dishwasher
IMPORTANT: Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks, and
other hard items from the dishes. Remove labels from
containers before washing.
Upper rack
■ Check that when dishwasher door is closed, no items are
blocking detergent dispenser.
■ Tough soiled items should be loaded with soiled surfaces facing
down and inward to the spray. This will improve cleaning and
drying results.
■ Avoid overlapping items like bowls or plates that may trap food.
■
Place plastics, small plates, and glasses in the upper rack.
Wash only plastic items marked "dishwasher safe."
■ To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation, load
dishes so they do not touch one another. Make sure lightweight
load items are secured in racks.
■ When loading silverware, always place sharp
items pointing down and avoid "nesting."
■
If your silverware does not fit into the
designated slots, flip the covers up and mix
silverware types to keep them separated.
■ Use slots in the covers and suggested loading patterns to keep
your silverware separated for optimum wash.
NOTE: Silverware basket may vary by model.
■
Check that nothing blocks the upper or lower spray arms.
Items in rack can
block the spray arms.

Dishwasher Use

STEP 1
Lower rack
Add Detergent
Premeasured Detergents
High quality premeasured tablets
and packs are recommended for
improved performance.
Quality tablets and packs have
been proven better than powder,
liquid, or gel detergents at
reducing filming on dishes. Using
tablets and packs over time will
start to reduce or eliminate white
film. They are suitable for all
hardness and soil levels. Also,
by using a rinse aid, you can
minimize repeat buildup of white film (not all packs and tablets
contain rinse aid). Always place premeasured detergents in main
compartment and slide lid closed.
NOTE: Follow instructions on the package when using other
dishwasher detergent types. See the complete owners manual for
more details about powders, liquids, and gels.
■ Use automatic dishwasher detergent only. Add detergent just
before starting a cycle.
■ Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in better
cleaning. Store tightly closed detergent container in a cool,
dry place.
